Empower your school’s safety with RM Technology

Unlock smarter, safer solutions for your school

At RM Technology, we understand the importance of creating a secure and safe environment for learners and staff. That’s why we’re committed to providing comprehensive solutions that empower schools and trusts to safeguard their physical and online spaces through technology.

Ways RM Technology can support you

RM SafetyNet

Protecting over 1 million users every day, RM SafetyNet is a web content filtering system that blocks harmful content and reports on online activity, so you meet DfE and KCSiE guidelines.

RM Unify

Over 7,500 schools use RM Unify for its secure, single sign-on platform, which simplifies access to online tools while maintaining strong security controls.

RM Technology can help secure your physical environment

The Department for Education has published site security guidance for schools and colleges covering six elements. RM’s technology services can help when considering how to make your site as secure as possible.

Secure buildings and property

CCTV systems can reduce theft and malicious damage. If your school has an IT suite, the DfE guidance recommends that it is covered by a CCTV system.

RM’s carefully chosen CCTV packages provide the essentials to protect students, staff and property:

  • Secure management in the cloud
  • On-camera encrypted storage
  • Optional cloud backup
  • Range of high-quality cameras to provide coverage of different environments
Perimeter security

Access control systems can protect against unwanted or unannounced visitors. Systems that include remote door or gate release, an intercom and, ideally, visual verification often rely on network connections to function correctly.

Visitor management

Gone are the days of the visitor book and its hurriedly scrawled entries. Modern visitor management systems support safeguarding requirements and help in an emergency. Connected systems can provide real-time data, create dynamic roll call lists, and manage entry to access-controlled areas.

Security lockdown procedures

Each school or college’s security lockdown arrangements will be unique to its specific environment. However, the requirement to effectively communicate the need to implement them is common to all.

RM Voice is a voice over internet protocol (VoIP) telephone system that simplifies inward and outward communication in a lockdown situation. By broadcasting emergency messages to handsets and connected devices, staff know how to implement the plan. RM Voice can also route incoming calls to a pre-arranged response while a lockdown is in place.

New Legislations requires education settings to implement procedures for evacuation, invacuation, lockdown and communication in the event of a terrorist attack. RM Voice helps comply with the requirements for managing such situations.

A reliable and secure network is the backbone of all these systems. RM can ensure your setting has wired and wireless connections to support CCTV, access control and VoIP communication systems.
